I'm with Essential on this one. I used short scales for years, always using long scale 45-105 to get some kick into the bass. Light definietly = floppy, short scales could do without that IMO.

Guess it depends on your bass and style though, worth trying all angles and maybe the looser sound will suit you? The Roto's are cheap enough to be worth a punt.
